Pandora FMS Configuration: Creating an Alert Action

The zip package where the binary comes also contains a file called test-exec.txt  which contains information about additional parameters that will enrich the sent message (subtitle, color, web link button, etc.). 

 To create an  alert command , go to the  Pandora FMS Web Console  and click on  Alerts  ->  Commands  ->  Create . 

 

 Next, define the eight necessary fields plus the last two parameters which are constants. Make sure that field number two has the  Hide  box checked and enter the authorization link obtained on the previous page there. 

 

 The  test-exec  file that accompanies the  Slack connector CLI  contains information that you can use to fill in these fields. Click the  Create  button to save the alert command. 

 Alert actions  allow you to define  how  to launch the command. Go to the  Alerts  ->  Actions  ->  Create  menu. 

 

 Select the alert command created on the previous page in  Command ; the fields will be filled automatically. However, you can always customize the icons or messages for  Triggering  and  Recovery  events, for example. 

 

 To save, click  Create . To apply this action, whether to a  Module or Policy , set an  alert template  for that purpose.
